Frankston v Casey Scorpions

Featured Replies

Thanks KC without you I would never have had any interest in the Casey Scorpions.

Its always a breath of fresh air after watching an MFC game.

 

Anyone see the VFL 'highlight' from about 3:27 on the Melbourne page yet? Both teams working together for a Casey goal. Hilarious.

I thought I'd give a mention to Dom Barry and his development. Seems to be finding more of the footy and is developing nicely as a wingman. Very exciting for next season!

 

How bad is it that Tynan had the same amount, or more tackles then over half of the players playing on that stats sheet, and he was injured early in the first quarter.... not sure weather thats a positive for his development, or a really bad thing on the players he has more than, especially the mids/defensive players. Hmm, anyway, good Casey got a win

The thing i've noticed about Toumpas in the AFL so far is that he looks scared to take the game on, scared to make a mistake. Whenever he gets the ball he seems to look sideways or backwards to find an easy target.

With a bit more confidence he should be using his elite kicking skills to go long and direct i'd hope.

Yep - needs to take a leaf out of Kents book or Vineys

OR

We could lock him in a cage with Cale Morton - that will make a man of him!

An anecdote from the game:

In the second quarter with Casey kicking to the scoring end, Sam Blease picked up the ball on a HFF and pinged away at goal and just missed.

His opponent immediately got stuck into him and called him "hungry".

Quick as a flash, James Magner responded, "Yeah, but he's too f*^%en good for you!"

KC, what did you take from that anecdote? That Blease is well liked or that Magner has a quick tongue? I'm not sure much can be read into it, apart from the fact that I'd like to hear more MFC players sticking up for each other more often.

Nothing to read into it other than James Magner is good at slick banter on the field. It was very funny stuff.

I'd also take from it that his opponent may be doing medicine, seems very switched on. Can see what the MFC haven't noticed for 5 years.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
